ChaunceyK: Apparently this thread is meant to be a game, not a "Help me figure out what movie is in my head" thread. But seeing as I can't think of a better title, I'm jumping in.
I remember seeing a movie back in the 80's. The part I remember was set in a desert...could've been natural desert on an alien planet (with humans) but I think it was more like post-apocalyptic desert, I'm not sure. I think it was the hero of the film who was bathing in a wooden trough at one point...stubbly-beard, wet shoulder-length hair. I thought it was either Kurt Russell or Patrick Swayze, but I checked their filmographies & it doesn't look like either of them was in a movie like this, but I'm pretty sure our "hero" had a similar look to them.
That's about all I can remember. Any help, anyone?
The movie was Steel Dawn. And it was Swayze. If it is the same movie swayze's character used a sword in the final fight that had holes along the blade and a hidden short blade in the hilt.
